I have a Ruger M77 MKII. Stainless/skeleton stock 30-06.
I bought this gun new, back in the 1997 or so. It has laid in the closet, in the box, until about 2 years ago. The cold bore is never in the same place. Shooting a 5 shot group, shot 1 and 3 may touch. 2 and 5 some times touch, but about 4 inches apart factor in shot #4 and it has shot some 6" groups!!!! Sent it back to Ruger, the replace the bolt, and said it was fine. I have tried many things. I reload, so tried Burger 155 VLD - Hrndy 150 SST - Nosler 150 BT, with countless powder charges of H4350, IMR4064, IMR4350, IMR4831. Have also let it eat some factory amo 150gr to 180gr. Put 3 different scopes on it, Burris Full-field, Pentax Lightseeker, Nikon Buckmaster. I got Houge full length almn bedded stock no help, Basix trigger no help, I re-sighted it in yesterday. shot 3 touching at 100yds. let it cool, then it started shooting 4" high and 3" left about 1 1-2" group. Could it be the Ruger rings? please help if you can. This is about to be my 1st and last Ruger!!!! HELP!!!! :banghead:
Should I give up and put it off on someone?
